Salvaging Trees

It was brought to our attention, by our lovely builders, the Van Buskirk family, that a few, old, beautiful pin oak trees were scheduled to be torn down. They wanted to know if we wanted to try to salvage them. Of course, our response was instanteous, “Yes. Let’s do it!” Take a look, as the trees are implanted. Warning: the trees inspired the camera to try to capture their height. Salvaging trees.
